Russia - threadbanned users in OP

Funny how the Russian apologists use terms like "NATO will fight Russia to the last Ukrainian" whenever the West give Ukraine weapons or ammo to defend themselves from the illegal invaders.

Yet you never hear them say "Iran will fight Ukraine to the last Russian" when shipments like this happen 🤷‍♂️

More than likely they will be transferred as they are,

The Russians used to service Nato mig29 for a few years

Aged like milk whopper there.

Nice action by loitering drones in Ukr (guessing the Switchblade 600's?)

So having to remove the upgrades makes them pointless, given how long that will take. Not to mention them being just more of the same and not better.

Anyway, as I said, I'm basically just relaying what Ukrainians themselves have said and I have managed to find what I previously read, so since I am not to be believed, then perhaps the spokesman of the Ukrainian Airforcce can persuade people:

While he and Ukraine go on about the F-16, I think that is because they are aiming low in the hope they might stand a better chance of at least getting something. I am confident that if they were offered F-18s or F-15Cs, they would prefer those.

The same person in another article described the problems the F-16 would pose, namely their rough, Foreign Object Damage prone airfilds and delicate landing gear. The undercarriage of the F-16 is too delicate for Ukrainian airfields. To use them they would need to surface at least one airfield with smooth bitumen. If they got F-18's or Grippens, they wouldn't need to undertake this huge task and they could use all their airfields, not just the upgraded one, which would probably become a prime target.

Given The US wouldn't object to F-16s being transfered, there's a good chance the same would apply if Australia were to ask to transfer it's 40-45 surplus F-18s.

That's efficient!

Has anyone seen the Irish lad all over social media and news sites spouting all sorts of Russian propaganda?

Think he’s married to a Russian.

His latest stunt is to stand on the halfpenny bridge and shout Russia Slava and post it on TikTok.

Hes probably our mutual friend that does be on here.

Another one...

Ukraine recently asked for volunteers for a high risk assault force. They got 20,000 applications. Another unit they were forming got 8,000 applications. They concluded their recent mobilisation effort on 2 days.

Horrors of mobilisation - what a laugh. Sure there are people who try to avoid it, but that applies in all countries, just ask Mr bone spurs Trump and Mr George Bush, I'm in the National Guard, you can't take me...

Some people have nothing to do and all day to do it.

Sleepy, I can assure you that I do not support terrorist regimes with my recreational travel either. Far from it. I presume that you are speaking about a grass-roots style popular rebellion? Irish Rebellion type? Not going to happen in Russia unfortunately, I've explained to you what Putin has done and will do again when or if large crowds gather in Russian cities to protest, never mind if they appear to be actually carrying weapons. Should a crowd appear with weapons, the streets would run red with their blood. Putin signed a presidential decree in 2016 creating a new National Guard, whose specific mandate was first, to protect the President ( Putin) and second was dealing with internal public order. ( Translation: Protests ) These troops will not be going anywhere near Ukraine, or any place else either. There are approximately 450'000 troops in the Guard, and they are completely separate from the Russian Army, are best paid and equipped and sworn to loyalty to Putin, and they are under his complete control. So to get to Putin, rebels will have to deal with the National Guard first,

The only one's who could realistically rebel ( as you put it) would have to be a branch of the military, who could plan and execute a military style coup in the Kremlin.

Either the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing, Iran's shipment took a week, or the Ruscists really were caught on the hop by a Ukrainian attack and they needed that week to prepare their strike.

So desperate. Be great if this spreads through more troops:-
